Enchanted Realms Magazine Preview Issue

Where the Dice Roll and the Pages Turn

For too long, fantasy readers and tabletop gamers have lived in parallel worlds — attending different conventions, reading different magazines, and missing the spectacular magic that happens when these passions collide. Enchanted Realms Magazine was built for the ones who live in both worlds at once.

This debut preview issue is your all-access pass to the full spectrum of fantasy storytelling. Whether you're a GM mining novels for your next campaign, a fantasy author whose best ideas come from a character sheet, or a reader who just wants to know which books will make your heart race and your imagination soar, Enchanted Realms is your home.

Inside this issue:

For Readers & Writers — Discover standout titles across every fantasy subgenre: heart-pounding epic fantasy, cozy enchantments, dark grimdark adventures, swoon-worthy romantasy, pulse-quickening YA, and urban fantasy that blurs the line between the mundane and the magical. From The Way of Kings to Caraval, from Legends & Lattes to Red Rising, our thoughtful reviews help you find your next obsession.

For the Lore-Builders — Our World Building Checklist: 50 Questions Before You Write is the definitive guide every fantasy author and game master needs before they put a single word on the page or NPC in the dungeon. And our deep-dive into elves across literature and gaming — from Tolkien's fading immortals to D&D's mechanical subspecies to romantasy's brooding love interests — will change how you see fantasy's most iconic race forever.

For Gamers & GMs — Get practical, hard-won advice on running better campaigns, discover the cross-pollination between fantasy novels and tabletop play, and follow along as we announce an epic quest to run every single AD&D 2nd Edition module ever published. Plus, a candid roadmap for anyone dreaming of turning their passion for gaming into a career.

Bonus Features — A complete 2026 events calendar spanning gaming conventions, renaissance faires, writing conferences, and fantasy festivals across North America and beyond. And a tribute to Charlaine Harris — the waitress from Bon Temps who helped birth modern urban fantasy and changed the genre forever.

Plus, meet the Elves of Nine Ashes in the opening chapter of an original fantasy serial — an unforgettable tale of djinn fire, ancestral magic, and nine young survivors carrying the weight of a shattered world.

Enchanted Realms Magazine is proudly family-friendly, ferociously fan-focused, and fiercely committed to one truth: the best adventures happen when reading, writing, and playing stop being separate hobbies and start being different doorways into the same magnificent obsession.
